he wasnt so much blonde as totally shaved off.
So more bald actually.

really blue eyes. Like super super light blue eyes. Blue eyes freak me out a little bit ( am obviously weird)

But he was nice to talk to. The lack of flirting threw me.

I didnt instantally want to rip his clothes off with my teeth.
But he was nice company.

Hmmm. im not sure.

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 10:22

It is easy to be disalousioned (spelt wrong I know) by some of the nutters on POF but I have met and either been out with or stayed friends with a couple of guys from there and they were lovely so there are some good ones out there.

If he asks then I would go Snail. Your don't always get instant fireworks, maybe they take a while to burn first.

OMG check out Yewtree70 on POF

TimeForMeIsFree · 21/10/2011 10:22

I like bald. In fact I'm very drawn to bald when I'm looking around POF. Bald as in shaved off I mean, not comb over bald. Although I am getting messages from proud owners of comb overs Hmm

My vote is to go for a second date watch. He obviously likes you so that's a good start, maybe he will be more open the next time and you might find yourself liking him.

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 10:24

I was in a relationship for 4 years up until last year, we were just friends for a while. I would have fun with him but no attraction unless too much wine then lots of snogging. I remember thinking it was a shame that I didn't like him that way and then suddenly I fancied him loads a couple of months in. Its hard to know how far to go though as there is no point in carrying on seeing someone in the hope that you will fancy them like I have done before

TimeForMeIsFree · 21/10/2011 10:25

Oh my. A 41yr old slave? I don't for one minute believe he is 41 but he is very gorgeous! Have you sent him a message zany

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 10:29

Yes, I sent a message last night just to say HI and that I couldn't believe he is 41. Just got one back thanking me for the compliment and asking if I want to chat sometime so he can get to know me better! Seems fishy to me

TimeForMeIsFree · 21/10/2011 10:32

Yep, definitely fishy. Not much to his profile either, he isn't saying much. There is no way he is 41 though, I'm sure.

watchoutforthatsnail · 21/10/2011 10:32

hes not 41. or those arent his pictures...

it will be some old man into bdsm hiding behind that im sure.

ok - IF he asks ill see him again, to see what happens.

TimeForMeIsFree · 21/10/2011 10:43

Smile good plan watch

copperbottom · 21/10/2011 10:58

Hello there - can I join you?

Finally plucked up courage to join match last night - after months of fannying about with a profile and trying to get photo's which didn't make me look like an old hag.. (Still do, but hell, let's give it a go!)

First profile I opened - chap referring to "naked hand-gliding"....

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 11:03

Yep that sounds lke a typical internet dating message to me Grin

Welcome inboots are yuo on any other sites or had many dates recently

copperbottom · 21/10/2011 11:09

No it's all new to me!

Dates - unfortunately not, divorced a year ago and have been a nun since. Well, actually was a blooming nun before too, but that's a whole other story!

Upshot: it's very much time to get off my bum and do something about it :)

Snapespeare · 21/10/2011 11:14

hello inboots! welcome! :) Brew as a bit early for Wine

right. I've messaged 3 people on soul mates.

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 11:23

Liking your 5 a day Snape

copperbottom · 21/10/2011 11:24

Ooo thanks - that's saved me putting the kettle on.

Had a bit of a scout around this morning whilst working very hard and seen a few interesting ones.

Emailing them -mmm need to think of some conversation openers.

Though having seen the hand-glider (I think he meant hang-gliding. I hope he meant hang-gliding.. ) perhaps I'm over-thinking it a bit...

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 12:05

If I message someone I usually say that I like their profile and then maybe ask them a question about something that they have mentioned so that they know I'm intwerested and have bothered to read it.

Just had the following conversation on POF

him - nice boobs
me - crap message
him - it was only a compliment chicken

Am I being to harsh

Snapespeare · 21/10/2011 12:10

I've been talking about backgammon with one and noted that someone on his profile pictures had a very fat and contented looking pug, so used that as an ice breaker.

This is wearisome though. Why can't I just recline gracefully and let eligible men queue up to contact me... Wink

Snapespeare · 21/10/2011 12:12

and sorry - 'nice boobs/crap comment/it was only a compliment chicken' would do my head in.

Does he talk to women on the street like that? & you're not a chicken!

But he's certainly a cock.

:)

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 12:14

So who's on dates this weekend.

I think Lubey is seeing BoR Saturday
I'm seeing Mr Hot on Sunday (gulp)
Anyone else?

watchoutforthatsnail · 21/10/2011 12:44

hi - inboots :)

snape - yeah, its a bit rubbish, but im liking your 5 a day thing. I checked out GS in my area, do you know how many men are on it who have logged on in the last 2 weeks. TWO! TWO!! So, thats not worth joining then...!! ( quite possibly says something about the quality of men where i live and why im still single)

Zany - the man is a cock. What you wearing sat, whats the plan?

I have no dates. And no dates lined up ( still need to cancel AD )

Zanywany · 21/10/2011 12:51

Meeting him in a country park (I still need to decide where) and then for a drink so was thinking leggings, boots and nice top. Of course I can guarantee that seen as I am taking the dog with me that she will have diarahh or something and so I won't exactly be at my best on poop patrol. Really nervous as I fancy him loads just by looking countless times at his picture.

watchoutforthatsnail · 21/10/2011 12:56

ah, nice. I had a dog walking date earlier in the year, and despite dog pooh, still got a second date ;)

AND i went in orangy flowery wellies :)

sounds fab

PoppaRob · 21/10/2011 13:12

Good evening group. Well I've sent two contact requests or messages each on PoF and Oasis this week for four refusals. So to coin a phrase, I couldn't get laid if I painted my dick to look like money no joy for me.

lubeybooby · 21/10/2011 13:19
